or small gates and where storage space is limited,<br />
it may be necessary to stack the gates. Sluice gates<br />
should not be stacked more than three high, and then,<br />
only with heavy timber blocking placed between the<br />
gates to prevent damage to gates.<br />
To prevent bending when lifting, handling and storing,<br />
stems should be supported over their full length. They<br />

Gates and Hoists stored at the construction site awaiting installation.<br />
should be stored carefully only on an even surface in<br />
a clean, dry area. The threaded portion of the stem is<br />
protected by a heavy fiber cover which should not be<br />
removed until the stem is ready for installation. Couplings<br />
and thrust nuts are shipped in place on the stems<br />
and should be removed prior to installation. Stop collars<br />
are normally shipped in a bag or box accompanying the<br />
floor stands. Operating mechanisms should be handled<br />
and treated as precision machinery and protected accordingly.<br />

Stems are supported evenly<br />
and kept off the ground.<br />
